The time has come for America to “make Agape Love”, not war. Love and communication God’s way will take us further towards victory. For example, the response to President Trump’s criticism of Democrats representation of urban America can’t hide the looming need to liberate many from poverty in Baltimore and across the nation. Emotional reactions and race card tactics can’t bury the truth: A major problem in inner city America is urban blight.

Thankfully, President Trump sees America through the lenses of “one nation under God.” That vision is for all of us; regardless of political party loyalties.

When I met with President Trump Monday along with 20 inner city pastors, he once again demonstrated his commitment to solving the problems facing the black community. Contrary to some reports, this was a meeting that had already been scheduled three weeks earlier; and not a photo op.

As we talked, the President was as genuine, collaborative, and gracious with us as he has always been.

When President Trump tweeted about the sorry state of downtown Baltimore, he wasn’t just pointing out the obvious fact that Baltimore needs help. He was highlighting the fact that Representative Elijah Cummings, whose district has received millions of dollars for relief, yet still includes some of the worst areas of that city, has chosen to attack the President by making false claims about conditions at ICE detention facilities while ignoring his own constituents in Baltimore who face deteriorating living conditions, increasing crime rates, and declining economic opportunity.

While Rep. Cummings has chased national headlines instead of looking out for the interests of his constituents, President Trump has been following through on his promise to make the government work for the forgotten men and women of this country. These precious souls include the people of Baltimore, whose own representatives pass over their concerns in favor of shiny headlines.

Don’t be fooled. The problem is not skin color. We are all one blood, one human race; regardless of skin color. The race card is a deceptive, socially engineered decoy; creating oppressors and victims. This misconception stirs the emotions while denying the much needed transformation to civility, equality, justice and freedom for everyone.

For years, Democrats have stoked racial anxieties to promote their elitist agenda, while black leadership and the Democratic Party isolate themselves from criticism by calling their opponents racist. Republicans, the party of abolition is often too silent, for fear of stepping on too many toes.

Under President Trump, this environment has reached a fever pitch: Democrats brand almost every action the President takes as racist, while inventing secret motives and hidden dog-whistles in his policies and speeches. Meanwhile, Republicans are sometimes more passive aggressive; remaining silent rather than speaking out.

Thankfully, under the bold stances of President Trump, ubiquitous accusations of racism are beginning to lose their impact on the American public and the black community, even while the good old boys and girls continue to cry “wolf!”.

Meanwhile, Black Americans and indeed all Americans are seeing the light; that President Trump is right. We are all red blooded Americans, and “we all bleed the same.” America is waking up to the fact that President Trump has delivered more results for our communities in less than three years than some of our own representatives ever have.

Now a growing number of black leaders on both sides of the isles are keen to work together with the President to accomplish even more; including sanctity of life, fair housing, economic security and safe living environments.

During the time I have served as a spiritual advisor in America, which includes praying with President Trump at key times, I know there isn’t a racist bone in his body. The Donald Trump I know loves all of his fellow and sister Americans. He sees, delivers, and succeeds beyond the limits of skin color racism. He sees everyone as human beings; including babies in the womb.

What color is urban blight? More important, what color is transformation? President Trump’s America First agenda is illuminated with light at the end of the tunnel.

He has already produced record-low African American unemployment, declining poverty rates, and rising wages, and his Opportunity Zones initiative is expanding economic opportunities for distressed communities all over the country. His campaign to Make America Great Again is advancing the interests of African Americans to a far greater extent than the policies of liberal elites ever could.

Black Americans want more than to live as pawns in the Democrats’ identity politics game; we want real solutions. Talking about “structural racism” and “white privilege” is how Democrats try to deflect responsibility for the catastrophic decline of African American communities under their stewardship. It’s tragic that Baltimore is rodent infested, dangerous, and filthy; and it’s insane to let the Party that has controlled the city for decades escape accountability by throwing around baseless accusations of racism.

President Trump offers a new and better deal for African Americans. He is continuing to speak with community leaders to learn about the particular problems facing their constituents and has demonstrated unquestionable tenacity in fighting for the interests of all Americans. He does not demand ideological fealty as repayment, the way the Democrats do, but rather works hard to protect American citizens regardless of the color of their skin solely because it’s the right thing for the country.

African Americans cannot play second fiddle to Democrat leaders who have failed us for decades. They can scream and cry with false claims of racism, but they can’t hide the blight for which they are responsible. May God heal and bless America. However, at the end of the day, we must all rise above political squabbles on every side. Pray for America.

We applauded President Trump for outstanding compassionate humanitarian leadership in:
1. The Rising economic boon; jobs, tax breaks, hands up for least of these.
2. Sanctity of Life and Family Enrichment (Higher Standard of Living)
3. Criminal Justice Reform
4. America First – (“We all bleed the same.”)
5. Youth Recovery and Restoration
6. Safe Borders and Legal Immigration
7. Restoring Harmony in International Affairs
8. And so much more.

The question for The Squad is: Impeach or Repair the Breach? Another one: How can we as women help to reasonably unite and nurture and repair?

Solution: We can pray and support the new trajectory of hope that POTUS has ignited.

Ladies, use your faith; not your hate!

As I’m writing this post, we are observing the 50th Anniversary of the sacrificial death of my father, beloved civil rights warrior Rev. AD KING who gave his life for the love of Christ and humanity. When man walked on the moon July 21, 1969, Daddy was killed that day, and he died and went to heaven.A.D. King Foundation

Zechariah 4:6 (NLT) “It is not by force nor by strength, but by my Spirit, says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies.”

Independence Day 2019 is tomorrow. During this time in our nation’s history, there is a heightened demand to redefine America’s concepts of liberty, freedom, and justice. Juneteenth 2019 is just behind us. We are currently celebrating 400 years of African American history, so it’s likely not by accident that the “reparations debate” is rapidly gaining traction in conversations across America.

Many inroads have already been made in seeking solutions. In January 2016, a United Nations project with the “Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent” conducted a study on the reparations issue. They recommended that the US establish a national commission to “monitor the human rights of African Americans” — and start taking steps to repay the labor that slaves performed from American independence through the Civil War (an amount that University of Connecticut researcher Thomas Craemer values at about $5.9 trillion) with reparations.

Currently, presidential candidate Marianne Williamson is most fervently backing reparations. The self-help guru and spiritual adviser wants to set aside $200 billion to $500 billion for a reparations program. She’s not offering to foot the bill personally.

Meanwhile, Senator and presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren is rooting for reparations for Blacks, Native Americans and Gays. The other candidates running against our President, including Senators Corey Booker and Kirsten Gillibrand, are also backing tax-payer funded reparations for descendants of former American slaves.

All of these candidates are fully in favor of tax-payer funded abortion laws that help to disproportionately kill the very population they say they are trying to repair. How can you repair people by aborting them?

Interestingly, at least two presidents haven’t sanctioned tax-payer funded reparations for descendants of former American slaves. In a December 2016 interview with “The Atlantic’s” Ta-Nehisi Coates, President Barack Obama said it would be difficult to “practically administer and sustain political support” for reparations.

On July 1, 2019, President Donald Trump said this about the current discussion regarding the federal government awarding reparations for African Americans: “I think it’s a very unusual thing. You have a lot of—it’s been a very interesting debate. I don’t see it happening, no.”

So, at least two Presidents don’t sanction the federal government doling out tax dollars to pay the reparations? Let’s think about this. Is President Trump saying “no reparations?” Or is the President perhaps inviting us to consider just who should pay for the reparations?

In “Reparations Reinvented,” Mark Crutcher, President of Life Dynamics Incorporated, and creator of award-winning documentary MAAFA 21 recommends “A FRESH LEGISLATIVE INITIATIVE.” His film Maafa 21: Black Genocide in 21st Century America documents that, in the 1800s, ultra-wealthy white elitists financed the eugenics movement as a way to rid the country of freed Blacks. It also documents that, (a) this campaign has been in place every day since then, (b) it is still being carried out today, (c) it has inflicted demonstrable harm on the existing African-American community’s personal, societal, familial, financial and political well-being, (d) the plans for this effort – including its intentional targeting of this racial group – were widely publicized by those responsible, and (e) the [fruits of the] perpetrators still exist, [and] are easily identified and have enormous wealth in both cash and other assets.

Nina May of Renaissance Women also asserts that the reparations owed Blacks should be paid by those who have imposed the most harm, rather than from US tax dollars. In her award-winning films, “Reparations, Who Should Pay?” and “Emancipation Revelation Revolution,” Mrs. May explains with supporting evidence, that “the facts point to the Democrats being the party of slavery, oppression, violence, divisive and deadly behavior, segregation and dishonesty. ERR brings an in-depth look at the history of the civil rights movement in America, the role that both parties played, and what happens to conservative blacks who leave the liberal plantation and identify with the Party of Lincoln. Black America needs to be reintroduced to the party that was founded to liberate their ancestors and if anyone should pay reparations … it is the Democrat Party.”

Thinking back, I remember that while seeking the votes of the American people, President Trump asked African American voters an open-ended question: “What do you have to lose?” I remember following up on his question with this request to our very forward-thinking President: Sir. Please tell us what we have to gain.

Further, President Trump speaks to all Americans, including African Americans when he says: “We all bleed the same. We don’t worship government, we worship God.” From this perspective, goals that involve partnerships among the governments, private sector and people of faith would be a good start. If we are really listening, perhaps we will hear an invitation to seek God and not humans, and pray for the guidance for solutions to bring justice and the jubilee that will be required to make the wrongs right in America’s Reparations Saga.
